Friendly fire sucks. Do you know how many people would spawn in militia gear just to kill proto's on their team? Too many. Plus all the Mass Drivers shooting at me in CQC, now instead of just being annoying they would be deadly. This is something that can barely exist in games like Call of Duty, it would be horrible to have in a game where all of our stuff has to be bought.

It's not abused in PC because generally everybody is well acquainted and knows that if they screw around they will be kicked from the Corp.

Seriously, I'm tired of going into CQC, having the other team unload half their clips into each other, yet still only damage me.

We already have it in planetary conquest, so it shouldn't be hard just to make sub-variants of the current game modes with friendly fire enabled. If anything, just make the ISK reward higher and add a type of auto boot if it becomes obvious someone isn't just accidentally team-killing.

I heard that in 1.4 you will be able to to go into FW. with 16 of your own corp at once. Hopefully friendly fire will be on for that.

I do enjoy a good proto stomp.

Imagine all the idiots in pub matches who will get a kick out of team-killing you to get the last hit on an almost dead red.

If this ever happens, you'd see me in the mountains blowing Thale's users up with REs.

Sorry, I'm an ass like that.

you get -50 wp for killing your own so it wouldn't be worth it just for a kill....

I agree turn friendly fire on for everything!

100% FF from all sources in all modes.

I've been screaming this from the rooftops for months now.

So dust would be the game for people who scream from rooftops?

No doubt they'll forget to put in a tutorial that tells the rest of us that.

I don't think it is that good of an idea due to the fact that we pay for most of the stuff on our suits

1. People like me will spawn in MLT gear just to kill protos..... (Protos will lose their expensive suits)
2. Aurum users will lose IRL money to people like me killing their Aurum suits.


Too many problems revolve around FF in pubs.

If you aren't willing to risk losing your gear from friendly fire, don't go into FF-enabled game modes. Or at least use cheap gear in them.

I heard that in 1.4 you will be able to to go into FW. with 16 of your own corp at once. Hopefully friendly fire will be on for that.

I would shoot you because I like you :)

So we'd lose proto stomping for team stomping? Sounds functional. In the not sense of the word.

Edit: I'm not saying make friendly fire the only option. Either way- this is New Eden; nobody is forcing you to use your most expensive gear.

ok so I was sitting, smoking, and thinking,

I like to call DUST a good start at PVP, Its not a run of the mill shooter to me,. Sooooo

I will accept a system where,

1, if you Kill one teamate you turn RED

2, I can now farm you along with the orange.

3, done,

As a penalty for team kills, I think the isk loss of the victim should be 2x compensated for by the offender (even by accident) as to put in an incentive in general not to team kill.

Continued affronts could have an sp penalty followed by a list of shame or book of the guilty as they have in dark souls, from which marks them on the mini map for all their future games which give players high rewards for killing them for either team (essentially they can no longer have teams). Also when tiers become introduced it would also mean they even if they create new characters they will be stuck in low tier unable to reach high tier games.

teamkillers aren't going care about some war points they can easily obtain when they are searching for tears.

No and I'll tell you why.

If they do that, I will wear a full proto fit and run my ass into your line of fire as many times I can that match.

**** AFK farming, I'm farming being TKed.

Yes, give me your ISK.

Which raises another question, what happens if the TKer has no ISK? Do they go negative ISK?

Overall, bad idea if you ask me.

This guy needs a promotion to Captain. Although you did leave out the part where people use scrambler pistols to shoot a blue-dot in the back of the head to steal a hack.

No blue dots would kill me just because I have a jovian rifle

i certainly hope not. I would hate this game every time some senseless dumb**** tk'd me just for the hell of it. Considering there's ISK involved in your fits it's a pretty major factor.

That would be the death of this game for sure from the inside out of pub battles.

Do REs still activate ragdoll mode? I remember back in codex, I decided to plant REs on someone who was operating a turret. The following animation made me become a mad bomber for the rest of the build.

I've noticed strange things happening when killing turret gunners.

I watched as Lightning Bolt2 knifed some poor blue turret operator and saw him literally fly upwards.

Then don't go into friendly-fire enabled modes, dumbshit

Hey dumbshit, I just don't see the point of making FF pub matches when they are going to make FW work off of their match making system and have FF. Dumbshit McDumbshit

No, this won't be abused at all. Absolutely not.

If it exists in a video game people will abuse it and ruin the intent of the game. This game has enough of that going on as is.

We know there aren't any Jove weapons. And if you're stupid enough to bring something like officer gear into a pub match, it's your own damn fault if you lose it for nothing.
